What's this?
A Cowboys receiver goes out and has a big day and is nothing but mild-mannered afterward? Believe it.
Miles Austin was offering no quotes about "popcorn" after he caught six balls for 171 yards and a pair of touchdowns Sunday.
From Austin: "We have a long way to go as a team. It's a good win. It's a big stepping stone. We are going to try hard this week and come in next week ready to play. I just went out and tried to play to the best of my ability. I'm going to play as hard as I can and that's all I can do."
Austin said he and Tony Romo are communicating better.
"We're talking about different routes and he's getting the ball to me and we're making plays where we can. I mean [Marion] Barber is making good plays. Everyone is making good plays when they get the opportunity. That's all we can do."

That came into play during Sunday's win against Atlanta. As Austin ran toward the left sideline after a catch in the third quarter, he tried to switch the ball from his right to left hand. Instead, the ball slipped out of his sweat-soaked hands and rolled out of bounds...

By Josh AlperWe've taken a lot of shots at Cowboys offensive coordinator Jason Garrett on these pages this season, particularly his habit of calling formations and plays that fail because they are too clever by half. It's only fair, then, that we take a moment to point out when he does something very right and gets little to no credit for it.Miles Austin's 59-yard touchdown...
